Might want to get incontact with a local trainer for advice, or books on the subject. As for the grass, it's toast. You can wait for it to come back, (more likely weeds will grow first), or you can dig them up, and flip them. Reseed the spots and keep watered. That's what I would do. hth, tom **************** http://www.Intertainia.com *********************************** Our Latest site: http://www.MedicalJobList.com - Hospital Jobs Classifieds. ************************************************** ***************************** |

dog wee killing my lawn
I have the same problem and I have 2 dogs.
What if I put a stepping stone or brick to where they pee and hose them during spring/summer. I live in Ontario Canada so I can't water the lawn in Winter. The wee won't destroy the brick, would it?

Hi,
There's a product called Green-Ums that is supposed to take care of this problem. You feed this stuff to the dog in pill or treat form. Supposedly eliminates the ammonia in the urine. Contains yucca extract and vitamins. Good luck! "Biller" wrote in message ... help - I have an 8 month neutered labrador X bitch. My lawn is suffering where she wees.
